Brake Lights help
Recently purchased an 87 110 with an 90’s 300 TDI.

Tail lights work, but brake lights and reverse light do not. I’m not as concerned about reverse, and likely not related, but trying to troubleshoot the brakelights. Did some searching - located brake switch, confirmed it’s connected on master cylinder. What are my next steps?

Have you got 12V on the green wire to the brake switch? This is the ignition 12V supply.
